The Needs
• Changing patterns of learning– From home, from halls, from anywhere– Distance and Semi-Distance Education
• Widening participation• Professional and continuing education
• Student expectations• Space utilisation
– Cost– Institutions that are ‘stuck’ with existing build and
space

The Problems
• Appears to have been little co-ordination
• Refits and rebuilds over recent years that now need to be looked at again
• Students and Staff with no ‘ownership’ of the learning spaces (Eagles 2001)

Opportunities
• New Technologies– IP videoconferencing– Wireless devices
• Laptops, projectors, videoconferencing
– Allowing cross-institutional sharing of T&L• VLE, MLE, XML, Webservices
• Better understanding of how space can be used to support T&L

Informal Learning Spaces
• Multipurpose forums– Meeting and social spaces– CyberCafes and bars– Areas for quiet conversation and study– Computer space– TV and Video– Wireless– Syndicate or breakout zones

Enhanced Teaching and Lecture Rooms
• Mixed mode rooms• Classroom Communication Systems
– Classtalk - wired, graphics calculators
– Personal Response System – IR handset
• Socratic Dialogue / Peer Instruction– Question, group discussion, feedback, class
discussion.
• Group based, Discussion based, Own paced• Amphitheatres
– Traditional and Harvard style

Clinical Skills Area
• Problem based learning• Simulated Ward areas
– Can be broken down into smaller examination rooms
• Vocational Skills Area• “Audio-visual links allow small groups of students and
experienced tutors to watch and comment remotely on each other's interview techniques via a video camera link from classroom to consultation room. Actors participate in role playing scenarios with the students who can then keep video copies of their resulting performances for future reference.”

JISC Initiatives• JCLT-ITTSLG, the Innovative Technologies to Support the Learner Group
– Information gathering exercise which included visits to several learning technology research labs and commercial organisations
– http://www.jisc.ac.uk/elearning_innovations.html
• Mobile Computing and Wireless Networks – to look at the current and next five years usage and developments and their potential impact on learning and teaching. The invitation to Tender is being drafted.
• Link between innovative technologies and physical learning space design – to understand how the use of technologies are and will impact on physical learning space design.
– A set of ten edited case studies has been commissioned on the current use of innovative technologies and their impact.
– The case studies are being produced by The Open University, Institute of Educational Technology under Agnes Kukulska-Hulme. The University of Edinburgh under Nora Mogey will be producing the supporting video clips. Completion is due by November 2004
• A workshop to explore technology futures, scenarios of future learners and learning environments is being planned for September 2004, possibly as a SIG at ALT-C.
